Just noticed that you had thought of warped discs yourself  Wink
 
Seems likely, although others may have more to add.

Just replaced the front discs on mine.
 
Still had a bit of vibration, so I changed the two 7mm pins that hold the brake pad holder in place. Now absolutely smooth.
 
Took them into work to measure them against the new ones before I fitted them, (as we have very sensitive electronic measuring equipment there), and there was a significant amount of wear on the old ones.
 
Just maybe........ Smiley.............and a lot cheaper.
